The mackerel catch has not increased
mich the past week. A few vessels of the
shore fleet have made good hauls, but no
large schools have made their appearance,
and it is hardly probable that there will be
much of catch for the remainder of the
season. The North Bay fleet have nearly all
arrived home and several vessels are hauled
up for the winter. The landing at all ports
from the New England fleet for the week
foot up 1902 barrels against 5O2S barrels the
previous week, and 2024 barrels for the cor
responding week last year. The total catch
to date as compiled by the Boston Fish Bu-
reau, is 65,749 barrels against 63,235 barrels
same time in 1886, and 27S,767 barrels in
1887. Compared with last year, the increase
is only about 2500 barrels, which is very lit
tie when the immense catches of 1885 and
1884 are intoI taken consideration. Mr.. Will
cox, of the American Fish Bureau, says the
catch of 1887 may possibly equal but is not
likely to exceed that of 1886.

DIphtherla.

This dread disease is quite prevalent In
this city, and it behooves parents to keep a
careful eye on their children. Four deaths
are reported the past week in our death re-
port, and there were two more deaths yester-
day. One of these cases. it is alleged, was
due to ignorance on the part Of the family,
whose child was sick. The child was suf-
fering from diphtheria, aud they allowed a
friends children to play with it, As re-
suit, one of the playmates took the disease,
and, as we have stated, died, while its aunt,
who took care of 1t in its illness, is down
with the same malady. School teachers can
aid materially in preventing contagion by
noting, when pupils are absent on account of
illness, what the cause of illness may be,
and If they hear of diphtheria in the family
OF pupil, preventing attendance of any
children belonging to the family at school.
Prompt notification should be given the
Board Of Health when any one knows of a
case, and all parents should carefully OBJ
serve the ordinances in regard to contagious
diseases. In the family of j. II. Wolf.
where there has been case of very malig-
nant type, there are no other cases, and the
house has been thoroughly fumigated The
store of Wolf and Aaronson is entirely sepa-
rated from the house, so that there is no
danger there from the disease.

Says Father Whose Child was Cured
by Hoods SarsapariIIa.


Children often suffer greatly from impure blood
until a good medicine like Hoods Sarsaparilla is
taken to expel impurities and give vitality. Par
ents should read the following statement
Il think it my duty to tell how much good
Hoods Sarsaparilla did my little girl. She was
from birth puny, pale and sickly and did not gain
strength as she grew older. Even when years
of age she could not stand alone. She ate hardly
anything, and seemed to be weak constitutionally,
but was doubtless kept back by impure blood,
which caused her much discomfort and suffering
She had scald-head terribly, her head being COW
cred with one sore. One day 1 read in Hoods
Item OF a remarkable cure of a child by Hoods
Sarsaparilla, and decided to try this medicine
To say that was astonished at the effect the first
bottle had upon her, would be mild way
OF expressing my feelings. Her appetite began to
pick up, and soon we could hardly give her enough
to eat. She also gained strength, could stand
alone, and the sore on her head began to grow less
We soon healed this up with Hoods Olive Oint-
ment, and when she had taken three bottles of
Hoods Sarsaaprilla she could run about the house
as smart as any child. She has been bright and
healthy ever since. write this out of pure graft
